Re: A World Cup of Uncertainty!
I think you are over-exaggerating a bit as far as PAK squad for the WC is concerned. Apart from the uncertainty surrounding the dope retesting issue (Akhtar and Asif) and the new injury scare (Akhtar), we all know who will be in the Final XI .
I believe this will be our WC squad (to be announced on 13 Feb. 2007)
Openers
1- Imran Nazir
2- Mohammad Hafeez
Middle-order Batsmen
3- Younis Khan (Vice-Captain)
4- Mohammad Yousuf
5- Inzamam-ul-Haq (Captain)
All-Rounders
6- Abdur Razzaq
7- Shahid Afridi
8- Shoaib Malik
9- Azhar Mahmood
WK
10- Kamran Akmal
Pacers
11- Shoaib Akhtar/Shabbir (if Akhtar does n't make it)
12- Mohammad Asif
13- Umar Gul
14- Rana Naved ul Hasan
Spinner
15- Abdur Rehman
